hillary did not follow the law in dealing with information that should have been sent in protected & secured government channels, when she used her own personal computer to send information dealing w/ state department affairs, when secretary of state. in doing so, no matter the recipient, she sent the material outside of official channels.
well, as hillary might say, what damned difference does it make. well, this is what difference it makes.--

former four star general of the u.s. army, and head of the central intelligence agency, david petraeus has apparently filed an agreed statement of facts and a plea agreement in the u.s. district court for the western district of north carolina, according to adam b. lerner writing in the blog "special operations speaks."
he was charged in a one count indictment with " ... possessing 'documents and materials containing classified information of the United States' and 'unlawfully and knowingly remov[ing] such documents and materials without authority and with the intent to retain such documents and materials at unauthorized locations.”

what david petraeus is pleading guilty to is exactly what hillary clinton has done. by sending any classified material from the premises of the department of state without authorization, via her private email to any destination or unauthorized location, she has done what pretraeus has pleaded guilty to in a criminal prosecution in federal court.***
it is as simple as that. in this case, it is tit for tat. whadda ya make of that, jack?

update, 03.10.2015 . compare and contrast the media treatment of hillary clinton with that received by sarah palin. (hint: a reporter moved next door to gov. palin's residence in alaska, just so he could snoop in her garbage, and get gossip from her neighbors.) why are the media so deferential to the clintons, and so blood thirsty on sarah palin? well, i suppose it could be that sarah palin never had anybody murdered? who knows?
http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2015/03/09/gov-palin-faced-tough-questions-over-email-so-should-hillary-clinton/ . hat tip, dennis sevakis.
every email sarah palin made as governor, scrutinized and made public. the media will be unable to recover anything written by clinton, and neither will congress. hey, could it be that they are all in the same game, and on the same team? end update.
